Liam came to meet the both of them and placed his hands on Sofia's shoulders. 'You should stop all these Rhea! Don't try to change the topic after you tried to seduce your own sister's husband '. Everyone seemed to be enjoying the drama, they didn't expect that the party would be this exciting but what happened next was just what they were not expecting. Isabelle raised her hands and she gave Sofia a resounding slap. She had not recovered from the slap when Isabelle gave her another slap. 'All right, I am starting to like Sofia's sister. She's such a badass'.
'Badass? She is causing a ruckus in her sister's house and you think she's cool? People like her should be avoided '. Everyone argued amongst themselves.
'Now listen everyone, you might not believe me but I don't care. I will say this , you all probably don't recognize me and why is that? Because my father never publicly announced that he had another daughter. I have known this for a long time but I kept on denying it. My father has been using me because Sofia here has a weak heart!! All my life, I have been a shadow of my sister. I had to train hard while my sister was still in bed. I had to learn everything about business in order to assist my sister in the future when she takes over the business, I had to be a good wife material because I could be married off soon at any time for my sister's medical treatment. I also had to marry a man that I've never met or know his character and that was why I decided to leave. You all are blaming me for disgracing my family but who should I blame? What about me? Is my life not equally important? Why should I live for others? Should I feel less of myself just because my sister needs more attention? Why should I live in the shadows and continue being used? I left to find a better life for myself and I did! What were you saying the other time? I was seducing your husband? Him?! Hah! I have better taste in men sister and I refuse to settle for less! I slapped you today because you both have insulted me by even trying to associate yourselves with me!!'.
Everyone felt silent as they watched Isabelle speak. They all felt that she was right and she was not wrong in leaving to search for a better life.
Liam was enraged. His runaway wife was insulting and slapping his good for nothing wife and they both couldn't do anything about it. 'You came for a purpose Rhea! You came to ruin our reputation even though you were not invited '. Everyone started whispering again, 'If she wasn't invited then that really means she indeed came here to ruin her sister's party ' . 'Both side stories show sounds true but I want to believe Rhea. Why shouldn't she live a free life just because Sofia has a weak heart and how is Sofia so sure that she was trying to seduce the man she had left in the first place? We really don't know who to believe at this point '. Sofia felt the public opinion were changing and she clenched her fist. Isabelle on the other hand wasn't feeling very well again, she felt weak and felt as if her energy was being drained, she just wanted to get out of there quickly.
'Call security! U don't know who let this woman come in without an invitation ', Liam ordered the maids and just as the security was about to drag Isabelle away, 'Stop!!....who said that she was not invited '.
Everyone turned to look at the source of the voice, 'Oh my gosh! It's Charlotte Smith!'. One of the guests gasped and everyone else also became surprised to see Charlotte. Isabelle sighed in relief as her mother in-law finally came. Liam and Sofia however, didn't know that Isabelle and Charlotte were now related.
'Wow, it's such an honor to have you here. There is nothing serious going on here. I was just about to send this stranger out of here, she was trying to ruin the party '.
'Stranger?'. 'Yes! Yes, she is nothing but a stranger Mrs Charlotte. Security, what are you standing there for? Throw her out!!'.
'Stop! How dare you call the securities on my daughter in-law?!'.
Everyone was confused, 'Daughter in law? Is she kidding?'. Liam chuckled nervously, 'Ma'am, why would you make such a joke?'.
'Do I look like I'm joking? Fine then, let me officially make this announcement. This is my daughter in-law, Rhea Smith and she is the daughter in law of our family which means she is the one and only wife of Alexander Smith. Let me get to the point, anyone who has a trouble with my daughter in-law also has a trouble with not just Alex and I , but also the smith. I hope everyone gets this right '. Now it was everyone's turn to be shocked. Isabelle felt like she was loved for the first time in her two lives, 'I am here now. Don't worry ', Charlotte told her and held her hands to comfort her.
'Since my daughter in-law and I had been kicked out of here, we are living but you will hear from me Mr Liam '. Charlotte held Isabelle's hands and they left together. Liam and Sofia were completely tongue tied.
'What? Rhea got married to....'. Sofia was shocked, Agatha had told her that Isabelle had gotten married to Alexander but she didn't know that it was Alexander's Smith who could destroy a person with just a snap of his fingers. Even Liam hasn't been able to work with Alexander because his standards were too high, 'looks like I underestimated this b***h'.
Charlotte hugged Isabelle as soon as they got outside. 'I am sorry Rhea, I had no idea of what you've been through '. Isabelle smiled, 'it's okay mother in-law but where is Alex '.
'Oh, I am sorry my dear, we had to compromise at the last minute. I can't take the risk of exposing your husband to the public yet but don't worry, my plan is still in effect '. Isabelle nodded in understanding. She was confused about the whole thing but chose not to say anything, she would wait until Alex tells her himself but she was really curious, what was his secret?
